When I'm unhappy with a photo, I try to save it by running it through Poladroid. Some times, it's just the thing to do.

Nice picture, nice lights.

Photography is "writing with light", so b&w photos are more close to the definition of this "hobby". You are writing with the basic light, only tones, so the b&w photography it's a little bit harder to make it eye catchable.

Really fantastic B/W.. It makes my day, Bravo.

I thought that you may be interested in a monthly fun posting that I started in July called "5 on the fifth" where you take 5 random photographs on the fifth of the month and post them somewhere on the net. You then add a comment on MY blog with your name, location and link to the site containing your photos and I update my blog entry so the world has your link.

Interested?

Here's a link to the last "5 on the fifth" entry

great use of available light here again. pictures in bw tells a different story. ive once read if you shoot color you show the color of their clothes. if you shoot bw you show the color of their souls. but some people misuse the bw conversion to save a bad picture. and that is the worst. thanks for sharing.

Great atmosphere, contrasting light plays so well with the contrast in the al pacino movie poster, strong look in the eye, well done Ilan

Like the black and white contrast you created on the face responding to the black and white contrast on the poster. Makes a great compo.

About b&w, i imagine b7w is associated in our minds to past things, that's why they carry a stronger emotional power. If Nicephore Niepce had invented photography directly in colors, the story would have been different and we wouldn't associate b&w to the past.

I do love how the poster graphically imitates reality, or vice versa, when these things work, like here, there are so many dimensions to enjoy with the intensity of a limited palette only a b/w can provide
